Every export target covered

Clean spreadsheets for the boss, the auditor, or the client. Formatting preserved, ready to send.

→ Parquet

Columnar format for Python/Pandas pipelines. 50 tables in 3 minutes flat, plus CLI mode for cron jobs.

Back up an Access database before it dies

Compact & Repair only works if the file still opens. A real backup means your data lives outside the .mdb — exported, versioned, restorable.

01Copy the raw file (.bak) before opening it again — every failed open risks more damage
02Export every table with the $49 tool — even ones Access refuses to show
03Automate it: CLI mode in a nightly script so backups happen without you
04Escape permanently: migrate the backend to the cloud and stop backing up a dying format

Export FAQ

Q: How do I export an Access database to Excel?

A: Open the .mdb/.accdb in Access Data Exporter (no Access install needed), browse tables, and export to XLSX in one click. Corrupted files and 2GB+ files work too — the tool reads raw bytes, not the Jet engine.

Q: What is an MDB exporter?

A: A tool that reads legacy .mdb files directly and extracts tables without Microsoft Access. Ours also handles .accdb, generates SQL with AI, and exports to Excel, CSV, and Parquet — $49 once, yours forever.

Q: How do I back up a database in Access?

A: File → Save As → Back Up Database only duplicates the fragile file. A real backup exports the data out of Access format on a schedule — use the CLI mode nightly, then consider migrating off Access entirely.

Q: I exported to CSV — now what?

A: If you just needed the data, you are done. If this keeps happening, the database belongs in the cloud: PostgreSQL, Azure SQL, or SharePoint. Export customers get migration priority.
